Hammerfall Premiere New Song “(We Make) Sweden Rock”, Reveal Details For New Album “Dominion”

Hammerfall have premiered a new song titled “(We Make) Sweden Rock.” This track is from the band’s new album “Dominion,” which will be released on August 16.

Vocalist Joacim Cans said the following about the song:

“This is a glorious tribute to the Swedish hard rock and metal movement with a lyrical theme using direct references to both other bands and songs. With catchy contagious riffs and enchanting (ear-worm) melodies, this song will be an instant classic at future Hammerfall shows. Without the Swedish rock and metal scene with bands like Heavy Load, At The Gates and Yngwie Malmsteen, the world would be a pretty boring and dull place! This is our noble tribute to all the bands that inspired not only us to play metal, form bands and eventually crusading around the world in the name of heavy metal. All hail the sons of the northern light!”

Guitarist Oscar Dronjak also added the following about the album:

“‘Good is not good enough; it has to be great.’ This is the mantra we have applied to every aspect of making this album, from the songwriting and rehearsals to the production and the performance of each member. The result is ‘Dominion’, a powerful force of nature that cannot be stopped. Once you hear it, you will understand.”
